Question 1

How much do coding classes at Algonova cost?

Accepted Answer

Coding classes at Algonova cost from US$7 per class. There are three formats: 1-on-1 private, a mini-group of 2 to 4 kids and a group of up to 10 students of a similar age. The group formats keep the cost per class lower, while the private plan has a custom price based on your child's age and goals, with a dedicated teacher and a flexible schedule. The first trial class is a live 60-minute session and is completely free, with no card and no obligation to continue. You only pay when you choose a plan, and you have a money-back guarantee: there is a full refund for classes not taken. The curriculum covers ages 6 to 17, and you can switch formats as your child progresses.

Question 2

Is the first coding class really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the first coding class at Algonova is completely free, with no card and no commitment to continue. Your child joins a live 60-minute session with a certified teacher, who guides them through a real activity suited to their age, such as a small game in Scratch or a first program in Python. You see the teaching style and how your child responds before deciding. The class also lets the teacher assess your child's current level and recommend the right course and group. Many families use it to compare Algonova with other coding schools. If it isn't a good fit, you simply don't continue and nothing is charged. To book it, you fill in a short form on this page and our team confirms a time.

Question 3

What ages are Algonova coding classes for?

Accepted Answer

Algonova coding classes are for kids and teens aged 6 to 17, with a curriculum that changes as your child grows. From 6 to 9 they start with digital literacy and Scratch, visual block-based coding that builds logic through games and animations, without reading complex text. From 10 to 13 they move on to Roblox and their first steps in Python, building their own games and learning loops, variables and events. From 14 to 17 they advance to Python Pro, with more complex projects such as apps and video games. Classes are grouped by age and level, so a 7-year-old and a 15-year-old never share a session. The free trial class confirms the right starting point for each student before any payment.

Question 4

What's the difference between the group class and the private one?

Accepted Answer

The difference between the group class and the private class is group size and price. The group class brings together 2 to 4 students in a mini-group or up to 10 in a group, all of a similar age, and costs from US$7 per class. The 1-on-1 private class gives your child a dedicated teacher at a custom price. In a group, your child learns alongside classmates on a fixed weekly schedule, which many kids find motivating. The private class offers a flexible schedule and an individual pace, useful for kids who want to move faster or need more attention. Both formats use the same curriculum for ages 6 to 17 and the same live certified teachers. You can start in one and switch later. The trial class is free.

Question 5

Are the coding classes online and live?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all Algonova coding classes are online and live, with a certified teacher teaching in real time rather than an automated app. Your child joins from home with a laptop or desktop computer and a stable internet connection; a webcam and microphone help them talk with the teacher. Because the class is live, the teacher adapts the pace, answers questions instantly and comments on the project while your child builds it. Groups are small, 2 to 4 students in a mini-group and up to 10 in a group, and private classes are 1-on-1. A family in Mexico City, Córdoba or Santiago gets the same class without travelling anywhere. The first class is free, so you can see how it works before paying.

Question 6

My child has never coded. Can they join?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a child who has never written a line of code can join Algonova, and in fact most students start from zero. The curriculum is built for beginners: from 6 to 9 kids work with digital literacy and block-based coding, so they learn logic by dragging blocks instead of typing code. Older beginners start with age-appropriate projects before moving on to Roblox and Python. The teacher always starts with the basics and takes nothing for granted. In the free 60-minute trial class, the teacher sees how your child thinks and places them at a comfortable level, without rushing. Classes are grouped by age and level. Parents don't need to know how to code to support their child at home during the course.

Question 7

How do I sign up for the free coding class?

Accepted Answer

To sign up for the free coding class, fill in the short form on this page with your child's age and a few times that work for your family. Our team then contacts you to confirm the time and send the class link; the whole process takes a few minutes. No card or payment is needed to book, and there is no obligation to continue. On the agreed day, your child joins a live 60-minute session with a certified teacher and works on a real activity suited to their age. Afterwards you decide whether to choose a private, mini-group or group plan, from US$7 per class, and if it isn't a fit you simply stop. Families in 97 countries have used this trial class to get to know Algonova.
